Several pro-choice protests have sparked at Catholic churches across the nation following a leaked draft opinion from the Supreme Court which showed that federal protections for abortion may soon be in jeopardy.
may soon be in jeopardy. But whether such demonstrations will have an impact on Catholic voters is uncertain.
Other activist groups — including"Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights,""Pro Choice with Heart,""Strike for Choice" and others — are also calling for protests between May 8 and May 15. In addition, reports of churches beingBrian Burch, president of CatholicVote, a non-profit conservative political advocacy group, told Fox News Digital over the weekend that he believes Democrats are in hot water amid the ongoing church protests as midterm elections near.
"I think this president has made clear that he prioritizes his political success over his faith," Burch said."He's done that on policy, and now he's doing it on a very pressing issue, a significant issue, when it comes to threats on the property of Catholic churches." "I'm not sure that they move public opinion all that much," White said."You're just seeing the activists on both sides here. I think the issue is a complicated one, public opinion wise, and I think that it's more nuance than people believe."
"Americans generally support abortion in the first trimester, they don't support it as a form of birth control," he said."They do support it in terms of rape, incest, life of the mother, they don't support abortion in the second and third trimesters and all of that is definitely been very, very stable over the years, frankly. So, I don't think that the ending of Roe changes that aspect of public opinion.
White said he believes the protests that are taking place will not move Catholics that do not attend church regularly to side with Republicans."It may, in fact, move them a little bit more to the Democrats."
